Answer:
P (dimes ) = 6/13 and P(NOT dimes) = 7/13
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the probability of getting dimes (P(dimes)), you need todivide the number of dimes by the total number of coins:
Therefore, P(dimes) =[tex] \frac{12}{14 + 12} = \frac{12}{26} = \frac{6}{13} [/tex]
To find the probability of NOT getting dimes (P(NOT dimes)), you need to subtract the probability of getting dimes from 1:
Therefore, P(NOT dimes) = 1 - P(dimes) =
[tex]1 - \frac{6}{13} = \frac{7}{13} [/tex]
